3. Shadowing I job shadowed Mark Kaston. He showed me a lot of house pans and how he makes them on the computer. We also discussed allot about what he was designing now and what I thought I them. He showed me all the plans he designed to make the buildings. Then we went out to look at the site plan where they were going to make them. Then we went back to his office and discussed his normal routines and what a normal day is like for him.

7. Costs Wind Turbines 2 mega watt = 3.5 million 1 mega watt = 1.2 – 2.6 million 10 kilowatt = 35000 -50000 thousand On average home cost 3000 – to 5000 per kilo watt for home use Most effective between 7 – 45 mph winds Solar Panels 10- 12 dollar for every watt 20000-40000 to power almost everything 5000 to power all of water Some do it yourself panels for only about 300 dollar and is 3 dollars per watt Bloom Boxes One fuel cell (one tile): 25 watts = 1 light bulb Small box with one stack of tiles: 1kW = 1 home, $3,000 (future product)( most American homes need more like 3-5 kW to be powered) Module: 25kW = small business Big box: 100kW = large business, $700,000-$800,000
